Be The Ball

That thing you want to set in motion - the one you need to see arch perfectly through the blue sky and come to rest in the place of your choosing - that's the Ball.



See a need, meet it.

Hear a call, answer it.

Find a void, fill it.

Lack truth, speak it.

Need recognition, give it.

Desire more, offer it.



And various other affirmations of the obvious.

Be in motion.



Be the Ball.

Shame About Your Love Life


"Sure, I think cars are great - I'd love to have one myself. But if God never chooses to give me a car, hey, I'm cool with that, too."

"You're spending $30 a month surfing Carmax online."

"So? There's nothing wrong with that. I'm not really
looking, I just, y'know, want to see what might happen."

"Uh-huh."

* The precedeing was not directed at anyone. The following is directed at everyone:


Thirty dollars a month is a lot to spend looking for a bridge partner.




The problem with people who are looking is that they aren't content where they are. They're not grateful for the Gift of Singleness. They're looking for someone else to complete them. They're not enough. They're . . . Desperate.

Right. Well, I am looking. For a date, for a boyfriend, and ultimately for a husband. Please do not be alarmed - the deafening sound you hear is merely every unmarried male within earshot scrambling to find a hiding place. (They'd sleep a lot better if they knew I've already ruled most of them out.)

Own it, people. If we're not ready to be honest about our desires, we're no where near ready to act on them.
